Would you spend $5-$7 on a fresh customizable protein shake after your workout ?

would you purchase a fresh shake at your local fitness center if the price was reasonable?

    Is that in US$? Is $5 to $7 considered reasonable these days? 😛

    Food Bank still claims that they can provide two meals for $1 CAD, which is less than US$1, by a bit.

    I'm fairly sure that when buying a package of pre made protein shakes from Costco you will end up at way less than $5 per shake.

    So, really, just as with any other convenient quick food location, it will depend on disposable income, convenience, taste, and "attraction".

    If your clients have the money and want to be seen having that special shake... you will sell shakes.

    Heck, it might even work even if your clients don't have the money--if it is scammed "marketed" "right"!🤔

    Would *I* buy one? No. But I'm also not your target client!😝

    No..i might pay that much rarely for a smoothie or milkshake, but not a protein drink as iI don't like to overdo protein for kidneys sake.

    No. I don't enjoy protein shakes at all, and can get ample protein without them, so never drink them.

    If I'm going to pay $5-7 for a post-workout beverage, I'm heading to my delightful locally-owned coffee shop for the largest possible nonfat latte, hot, no flavor. In fact, I do that a few times a week in season after rowing, with my rowing buddies: Socializing is a bonus.

    A lot of people seem to like protein shakes, though, so you might find a customer base.

    There's probably a market for it, Boost Juice still does a roaring trade. If it was at the gym, I'm sure people would buy it, it's about the cost of a coffee. For me, no. But I can see it having customers.
